LOGAN, UTAH: Judy Lofgren Lange, formally of Byron, Wyoming, passed away at Logan Regional Hospital July 12, she was 64.
Judy was born in Salt Lake City June 21 1944 to Richard and Gwen Lofgren. She grew up in the Salt Lake area and graduated from Olympus High school.
She married Mitchial Lange September 3rd, 1965 in the Salt Lake LDS Temple. They lived in the Salt Lake area for ten years and then moved to Byron Wyoming for over thirty years, where they raised their family.
To their union was born 7 children. Her children were her priority. She loved her children
She was an extraordinary seamstress and loved to sew a variety of things from prom dresses to the high school mascot costumes. She especially loved sewing for her children and grandchildren. She loved to knit and crochet. She was extremely creative and showed this through her craftwork. She was the best cook around. Whenever a neighbor was in need of a meal, they requested one from Judy. She was very generous with her food. She will be forever remembered for her homemade chicken noodle soup! (no one can ever make it like her!)
As though raising 7 children and using her creative talents weren’t enough Judy also managed a food storage business from her home where she was the district manager covering four states. She received many awards for top salesperson. She was a great example of hard work and dedication.
She was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. She served in scouting, primary and relief society. She loved the gospel and instilled that love for the gospel in her children.
She had a strong will but a weak body. She is now free to be the person she was meant to be. We will miss her.
We would like to thank all medical personel that helped to make her life here on earth easier. Thank you!
She is survived by her husband Mitchial Lange of 43 years, her children Michael (Vanessa) Lange of Bothell, WA , Bret (Alana) Lange of Logan UT, Wendy (Jeff) Fox of Salt Lake City UT, Jill (Guy) Stones of Syracuse UT, Cory (Liz) Lange of Woods Cross UT, Andrew (Annalise) Lange of Salt Lake City UT and Jason Lange of North Salt Lake City UT.
